Output send/return
Posted on: 02.08.2012 by Bobbie Scothern
Wanna use a Korg Kaoss Pad Quad. Got no send/return on controller.

So plan is: master cinch OUT (controller) --> cinch IN (Korg) ---> cinch OUT (Korg) --> Somekind of a mixer/splitter with two different outputs: one pair of cinch OUT (goes to my power amplifier) and one pair of xlr (goes to monitor boxes)

To summ up the question:

need a cheap way of splitting a cinch (RCA) to a cinch (RCA) and 2 xlrs (balanced)
must be good sound quality
with cheap I mean less than 100 euros

I believe Y-Adapters lose a lot of quality. So basicly a box with same output possibilites that some controllers have - master (chinch) and additional xlr (balanced master)

Why? Have you tried it? It'll cost you next to nothing (<

Try something like this
I have done something similar before and in my experience, if you use decent quality splitters then you have nothing to worry about.
Hope it helped.
otherwise you could maybe look into some of the powered audio visual splitters used in home entertainment. Like this

Sounds to me like it would work but you'd be effecting the master output which kinda sucks.

Come off it.

you cant splitt a signal theoreticaly without losing intensity. you need additional preamp to not lose quality (additional power plug for the adaptor)

"RCA connector, sometimes called a phono connector or cinch connector" - yeah, my fault its cinch not chinch.

Im not going to use a Kp3 - Im talking about a Kaoss Pad Quad. All I need is a kind of a "mixer" that will split signal into cinch (RCA) and XLR from RCA.

So all I need is a kind of adapter from RCA to RCA and XLR

no it won't work... you could maybe "jack" your traktor outputs into ableton then with a two in two out soundcard hook your kp3 into the loop then "jack" back to traktor. It would be a pain in the ass if you asked me.

You can also use it as a midi controller with these controls. Here is a pretty cool way to map it in VDJ, it would not be possible to map it that way in traktor.

Would this piece work? : http://www.thomann.de/gb/art_cleanbox_pro.htm

Or doesnt it mix one IN to different OUTs?
